Ormeau Table Tennis Club is excited to announce the introduction of the Corporate Table Tennis League for companies in and around Belfast.

Most companies now recognise the importance of health and wellbeing amongst their employees. Many actively promote such a culture within the workplace, by providing activities such as table tennis.

We’ve designed the league to enable these forward-thinking companies to engage in a fun and competitive team experience that encourages their employees to interact and network with others while being active.

How many people can participate?

A company can enter up to 2 teams. A team consists of 4 players, but we advise selecting at least 8 players per team to increase the chances of a team’s full availability in every match.

Each team will play one match per month, from May to November. Matches will be played on Fridays at 4:00pm at Ormeau’s full-time, dedicated table tennis facility (113 The Mount, Belfast, BT5 4ND) and will include complimentary drinks and snacks as well as the services of an official umpire.

When will the league start?

We aim to start the league in early May 2018

How will we get our league results, tables and fixtures?

All results, league tables and fixtures will be released via our website, social media and through our APP. We have invested in all these to make the league visible and more interactive for companies, players and general public.
